This definitive screwball comedy stars genre virtuoso Lombard as
a scatterbrained scavenger-hunting socialite who plucks "forgotten
man" Godfrey (Powell) from the city dump, makes him her new butler,
and watches him transform her coterie of eccentric relatives. The
first film to receive Oscar nominations in all four acting
categories, with Depression-era social commentary lending a subtly
serious note to the madcap proceedings.
